Errata List Discussion:

* Errata items in database marked with class "doc-bug" have not been
   updated with information requested in last meeting. If not already
   done, please forward the information requested of you regarding the
   4-5 errata items assigned to you in the last meeting ASAP.

* Discussion of Errata Item #3:
   - Much discussion regarding handling of system tasks in constant
     functions.
   - Reclassify item as a "errata-discuss".
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Proposal by Karen:

Going forward, propose we meet every 2 weeks alternating between a
combined 1364/ETF meeting, and a dedicated ETF meeting. The next
meeting would be a dedicated ETF meeting, and the following a combined
1364/ETF meeting. Only combined 1364/ETF meetings would be counted
towards attendance and voting rights.

Second: Steven

Result: Approved

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Proposal by Mac:

Request that the IEEE continue distributing the current (1st edition)
version of IEEE 1364-2001 for now, but to discontinue printing new
copies of it. When errata process is completed, publish the errata
and begin making available the 2nd edition IEEE 1364-2001. Post some
kind of notice that there are issues with the 1st edition and that
a 2nd edition, and errata document, are forthcoming.

Second: Cliff

Result: Approved (with much wining)
